Vinograd, Altona 4; Friedberg, “Mem” 2753; St. Cat. Bodl. 3862.

Published anonymously, Vinograd correctly attributes this work to Hagiz, although Friedberg attributes it to R. Yechezkel Katzenellenbogen. Carlebach notes (Pursuit of Heresy (1990) p. 271 n. 44) “it is Katzenellenbogen’s approbation which clearly indicates that Hagiz was the author.” The introduction states that with the aid of this text, a proficient scholar could review the entire Talmud in a single week.
